Hey guys, I'm getting excited about christmas, mainly because i get to come home for 2 weeks. All the xmas decorations are up already in the USA!! I was wondering does anyone have a advent calendar? Maybe we could post what we got in the advent calendar?? (yes i am a women of 25 years old ) Whats everyone doing for Xmas? Does anyone have a german xmas market here them? If you do, can you go drink some gluhwein for me?

I've bought nearly all my prezzies now (though I don't have many to buy for - just my parents and boyfriend). We do a Secret Santa at work too, I've got that one sussed as well I am quite organised this year!

I actually went to the xams market in dusseldorf, germany at the end of Novemebr when i was out their on business.Fantastic market and I bought a few gifts and some decorations, ok and drunk some gluvine I have bought all my presents and wrapping paper just need to get cards, can't stand the crush in the shops at xmas so never leave it lateThe tree will go up this weekend and I will also do the work tree on Monday (my favorite job of the year unsurprisingly )

Aaaaaah, well I'm not a Christmas person, but you lot have shamed me into putting up the nativity scene my dad made for me! Ta!

AND I've just found a packet of mulled wine spices in my cupboard (never mind cobwebs, they're full of vitamins), so if I post really weird stuff later, you'll know I've entered into the spirit of PP Christmas by downing a saucepan of Gluhwein.

I've done nearly all my christmas shopping. No tree this year though, I can't afford to buy one! I'm hoping my parents have theirs up when I go back to India for Christmas! Having a proper look at the german christmas market next week and hopefully going iceskating I'm feeling rather christmassy right now despite my disappointment over not getting an advent calender in time!
